Tiverton letter’s cut-and-paste quotations twist the truth

To the editor:

After reading both letters to the editor from P. Hilton and J. Caron, I strongly suggest that Mr. Caron reread Trisha's letter and apologize to Trisha Hilton and the taxpayers of Tiverton for creating his own version of "fake news.”

The best part of Mr. Caron's letter is the fact that the public now knows him for who he is. You cannot take parts of a quote and omit certain facts to twist it to prove your point. That, sir, is wrong, just plain wrong.
